In this traditional Quranic school (daara) in Louga, Senegal, a begging bowl, tablets with Quranic verses, and scattered blankets fill the room where talibé children sleep at night, on the sand, without protection from malaria-carrying mosquitos. A child from this daara was hit by a motorcycle in the streets on January 13, during the hours when he and the other talibés were out begging.
